American Jewish singer, rapper, beatboxer and musician Matisyahu is set to perform live in concert on Saturday, 18 Jan. at Cayman Cabana, in conjunction with 7 Mile Society, a local entertainment and cultural events company.
The performance will mark Matisyahu’s first appearance in the Cayman Islands and will feature a high-energy, dual format with an acoustic set, followed by a DJ and vocal performance.
“I am very excited to be coming to the Cayman Islands. I have actually never been. In this time we are living in, it gives me great pleasure to visit my fans all over the world and try to offer music as inspiration,” Matisyahu told the Cayman Compass.
The Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter, whose real name is Matthew Paul Miller, arrived on the music scene in 2004, releasing his first album, ‘Shake off the Dust… Arise’. He’s known for his conscious and spiritual lyrics, fusing his Jewish roots with reggae, rock and hip-hop, adding a unique flair of jazz and soul.
Matisyahu has seven studio albums under his belt, along with five live albums, two remix albums, five EPs and more than 20 singles. His catalogue of music includes hit songs, ‘One Day’, ‘King Without a Crown’, ‘Sunshine’ and ‘Jerusalem’. He has received two gold albums.
7 Mile Society’s Ryan Heil confirmed with the Compass that Matisyahu will be performing two sets, “an acoustic performance with a guitarist, and then a high-energy DJ set with Matisyahu singing. The show is scheduled for about an hour and a half of live music, with a local opening DJ warming up the crowd.”
Heil added, “7 Mile Society’s mission is to elevate the Cayman Islands as a premier global entertainment and cultural destination by curating exceptional, original events, attracting world-class talent, and fostering strategic partnerships that showcase the islands’ unique culture and beauty to domestic and international audiences.”
The show starts at 8pm and tickets are going for $75 general admission, $110 VIP and can be purchased on the EventPro website.
